I talk about what Robin William's ment to me. I also talk about his less popular movies "Popeye", "Hook", "What Dreams May Come", "World's Greatest Dad". I also talk about how life is sometimes like Nietzsche's eternal return. I'm not sure I actually said that but it was in my notes. I was head over heels for a comedian as a child and guess what, it's happened again. Robin Williams will forever be the standard by which I measure men.

Finally, the world has never or will ever have a friend like you. I end with his song from Aladin "Friend Like Me." RIP Robin Williams, I'll always love you.

We are all beautiful: Eva DeVirgilis is a make up artist and actress. She tells how women always apologize for being ugly. Even though she constantly tells many of the women who sit in her chair that they are beautiful, she is equally critical of herself. It's worth the 10 mins to watch! http://spillway.ca/blog/2014/05/14/we-are-all-beautiful/

Louie has the most amazing episode about fat girls! http://youtu.be/KFdWcNJ17YY It is so weird hearing the words in my head said out loud by someone else. I love the way the scene breaths. Louis CK really lets his episodes unfold. Nothing ever feels rushed or forced. This monologue is brilliant.

Pete Holmes has been killing it this week! Pete "Sherlock" holmes? Genius. Then on Thursday he has this monologue: http://youtu.be/PUeHeLIwd38

I was able to meet him very briefly this year when I was in Tennessee to see his son Chris Hardwick perform. I feel like I have gotten to know him though the the stories Chis has told on the Nerdist Podcast. He clearly loved his family. He had some amazing achievements in the world of bowling. The world is poorer for loosing such a talented and passionate human being.

This is a recent Nerdist podcast where Chris Hardwick talks about how his Mom and Dad started to talk to each other for the first time since the 1980's. It's really bitter sweet given the current news. It is comforting to know that before his death he was able to mend his relationship with Chris' Mom. http://www.nerdist.com/2013/10/nerdist-podcast-lucky-pen/

Billy Hardwick's Miller High Life Beer comercial. "My favorite tidbit about this is by far that fact that he was supposed to have lines and then take a swig, but quickly got too hammered after several takes. http://youtu.be/h_pDPhEk440

Lyrics:

Just a small town girlLivin' in a lonely worldShe took the midnight train goin' anywhere

Just a city boyBorn and raised in south DetroitHe took the midnight train goin' anywhere

A singer in a smoky roomA smell of wine and cheap perfumeFor a smile they can share the nightIt goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waitingUp and down the boulevardTheir shadows searching in the nightStreetlight peopleLiving just to find emotionHiding somewhere in the night

Working hard to get my fillEverybody wants a thrillPayin' anything to roll the dice just one more time

Some will win, some will loseSome were born to sing the bluesOh, the movie never endsIt goes on and on and on and on

This week's song is Sara Watkin's You and MeLyrics:

I remember the night
I remember the sound I remember the light When the moon came 'round
The night flowers bloomed The air so sweet
I remember you I remember me
Central Valley sunshine
Run out of town Make your head all funny
So you stick around
Dusty roads Make dirty feet
I remember you I remember me
I remember the night I remember the sound
I remember the light
When the moon came 'round
The night flowers bloomed
The air so sweet I remember you
I remember me
Wish I knew you now
Like I knew you then
For hours I just sit at your feet And listen
When I want To feel free
I remember you I remember me
I remember the night I remember the sound
I remember the light
When the moon came 'round
The night flowers bloomed
The air so sweet I remember you I remember me
Found myself at your place
When I was out walking I could hear your piano
And I swear I could hear you sing
And the joy we shared as we tarry there
I remember you I remember me
I remember the night I remember the sound
I remember the light
When the moon came 'round
The night flowers bloomed
The air so sweet
I remember you I remember me
I remember you I remember me
I remember you

Closing: 30 Seconds with Chris Hardwick (The room gets dusty for me #feelings) Ultimately, I am and always will be the optimist, the hoper of far-flung hopes, the dreamer of improbable dreams. It says so on my podcast business card.

Quemment of the week: How much would you spend to eat dinner with a person of your choice? Who would it be? (My answer may SHOCK)

Christmas and what it has come to mean to me. For me the holiday season is a time to decompress from the busy fall and get ready for the spring. This year it is very hard for me to be excited about Christmas. I cannot believe another year is gone. I'll save the introspection for next week's podcast.

You are the warden rather than the prisoner of your emotions. - Chris Hardwick

The third is the Carlos Castaneda quote "We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.” It only makes sense to put your energy into being happy. Making that decision only brings positive energy into your life. People like being around happy people.

Choose a positive attitude.

If you are looking for evidence to support your particular attitude, you will find it in the world. If you think the world is full of trolls, you will find them. In fact they are all you will see.

Harmontown had a very accurate summary of what went on during the SF Sketchfest as far as Dan Harmon. According to Chris the reason why he hasn't released the episode was Dan Harmon's problems (Chubby Chase, being fired from Community). It is Harmontown #5 Confessions: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/harmontown/id542228532#

Adam Carolla had LeVar Burton. There wasn't much of a conversation with LaVar except for about Roots and Reading Rainbow. They talked a bit about how he got into acting and how he got his first role in roots at the age of 19. I hope LaVar is on Nerdist. I would expect a more in depth conversation. It is a mystery as to why Lavar called up Adam and told him to cut it out. Not a necessary episode if you are looking for some Lavar entertainment 2. Nerdist has Billy West and John Dimaggio 1.

I have been trying to tweak the podcast by what I feel I like. The problem is that I don't like listening to me. So it is basically all shit to me. I finally received some feed back. The consensus is that I start off well then babble. So this week I took a deep breath and really became the producer of my own podcast. I hope you enjoy the results.

Recommendations:It's a double animation recommendation week!! The hard work of both groups of people create the awesome art that is animation. You really cannot have one without the other.

Larry J. Miller! He was on an episode of "You Made it Weird" He also has his weekly podcast called "This Week with Larry Miller." He had a bad accident the other week. He is expected to fully recover. But they did re-post an episode this week. It is a good episode so go take a listen. But get well soon!!!!

My podcast is the red headed step child if Nerdist got it on with This week with Larry Miller and enjoyed a burrito afterwards. Now that's an image. Ok, this is only in my dreams but maybe one day? I'll be funny and inspirational but hopefully not bald. mmm...I'm going with silly with a touch of whimsy. Clearly I miss but...gotta keep trying.

It has been a tough week for everyone so I want to look at the positive stuff that happened.

I totally am not upset about being stood up by Nerdist for the 4th time. They did eventually reschedule but I'm really irritated. I do understand

Kickstarter is awesome. Both the projects I backed got funded! I donated to the Inspector Spacetime project. Also the Zack meets the Zombie book got funded!! It was tense there for a while.

I friended Ron Paulsen on FB. Honestly I rather he follow my twitter. I do more funny stuff there. NARF!

Recommendations of the week: Check out Scott Sigler on Nerdist! I've been following him on and off since 2005. If you like him then might I recommend Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff . His stories are really cool. I would also recommend Mike Bennett "One Among the Sleepless" is soooo good!!

There will be at the min of two more Nerdist Live shows.

Fun Fact: It's really Jonah that I'm after until being his fan girl became too mainstream. ;-)

I give a quick review of the show. Lesson from the show: Chris IS half Italian and you should not piss him off. Seriously. Don't do it.

I give shout outs and do a 10 min quemment.

If you like the quemment then pass it over to the Nerdist.

In this episode I talk about how I humble bragged! Albert Brooks was gracious enough to reply to my tweet and wished Chris Hardwick a happy birthday. This is the LAST time I'm mentioning it. I swear/promise!

I talk about the live show. It was awesome! I got home at 1am but it was totally worth it.

Gladstone now follows me on twitter. I have a feeling he won't be if he ever listens to this podcast.

New ideas for segments:

1) A verse and a chorus...i sing a verse and a chorus of my favorite songs. I love singing and this is a way to help me find my voice....

2) Bad Acting Theater. I read from a script posted on Amazon script. I am looking at Gladiators vs. Zombies. This movie needs to be made. http://studios.amazon.com/projects/2909

Probably not in the big picture of the universe or Mr. Hardwick's life but everyone learned an important lesson and grew as a result.

Thank you for listening ]]>15:29noDi Hard Season 0 Ep 5Wed, 26 Oct 2011 22:12:05 +0000Listen to me babble on about my week and the newest social networking site node.nerdist.com

It is currently in beta but shows a great deal of promise as well as the ability to chew up time.

]]>15:29noIt's not Perfectly NerdistThu, 20 Oct 2011 22:21:18 +0000 Music is Tim Mnchin's Not Perfect. Much like that title this song is less than perfection. Who needs perfection when you got heart right? Mmmm.....

I wrote the lyrics and sang the song. I'm not sure it was one of my better ideas. While I love singing I'm not sure others love hearing it.

Lyrics

This is the Nerdist

It is a community

fulled with nice and creative people

It was started by a guy who

hosted a show called singled out

and now he #humblebrags about that hair

And here's the really weid part

It was really simple at the start

but now it is a global phenomena

This is the Nerdist

and its fine

it's where we spend the vast majroity of our (free) time

it's not perfect but it's ours

NOTE: I really need to lay off the Nerdist podcast. I'm picking up too many Hardwick-isms although to be fair they were probably Di-isms first. I suppose I could always use the age card. Yeah! That excatly what I'll do. Oh who am I kidding.

Thank you for listening.

]]>1) More about why I'm podcating

2) Like a massocist in New York I'm Nerdist Bound

3) That Ram Band
